Abstract: A virtual reality shopping device includes a virtual reality glass having a slit for reading the credit card information, a telecommunication circuit device for receiving shop information data, the shop information data including product images to be sold and interior images of the shop, an image screen mounted on the glass on which the product images and the interior images are projected, and a controller, which is connected to the glass.

Abstract: A sealing device for a turbine has a sealing member provided in a gap between a rotor and a stator arranged to surround the rotor, and a fluid path provided within the stator, to introduce, into the stator, a cooling medium used to cool stationary blades extending radially inward from the stator, and to flow the cooling medium at least to an upstream side of the sealing member.

Abstract: An axial-flow turbine according to an embodiment includes a plurality of nozzle structures and a plurality of blade structures. At least one nozzle structure includes an outer ring diaphragm and an inner ring diaphragm. The outer ring diaphragm and the inner ring diaphragm form an annular opening portion which extends in a circumferential direction therebetween. A nozzle is provided in a portion of a region of the annular opening portion in the circumferential direction, and a closing part is provided in another portion of the region of the annular opening portion in the circumferential direction. The closing part closes this other portion of the region to prevent a working fluid from flowing into this other portion of the region. A closing part medium passage is provided in the closing part and is configured to flow a cooling medium which cools the closing part.

Abstract: In a method for manufacturing a channel-type brush seal of an embodiment, a cored bar is made to abut on a bundle of thin wires and the bundle of thin wires is bent at a part at which the cored bar abuts on the bundle of thin wires. Here, the cored bar is made to abut on the bundle of thin wires so that an extending direction of the thin wires in the bundle of thin wires is inclined with respect to an extending direction of the cored bar, and then the bundle of thin wires is bent, to thereby make extending directions of the bent thin wires intersect. Next, the channel is bent so that the channel sandwiches and fastens the bundle of thin wires and the cored bar at a part at which the bundle of thin wires is bent.
